An officer at 7:27 p.m. on Oct. 28 pulled over a driver suspected of drunk driving after pulling out of the McDonald’s parking lot on Lorain Road and nearly striking the curb.
The driver, traveling eastbound, nearly struck the curb a second time on Lorain Road near Dover Center Road and then made a right turn onto Brookpark Road, where he straddled two southeast lanes, according to a police report.
The driver said he had only two drinks earlier in the night, but he had difficulty performing field sobriety tests. After nearly falling over, he blamed his shoes for not being tight enough. A loss prevention employee said he saw the suspect conceal a pair of men’s boots in a bookbag and then conceal a pair of Adidas tennis shoes in his pants before attempting to leave the store without paying for the items. The loss prevention employee stopped the suspect just outside the south exit of the store and escorted him to an office.
